Panos Moumtzis, the U.N. refugee agency's coordinator for the region, gestures during a press conference at the headquarters of the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland, Friday, Nov. 9, 2012. Mountzis told reporters that 9,000 Syrians fled to Turkey, while 1,000 went into Jordan and 1,000 into Lebanon just in one day. He said the estimated figures are "really the highest we have had in quite some time" compared with an average 2,000 to 3,000 Syrians fleeing daily. (AP Photo/Keystone, Martial Trezzini)
